When Emma Fitzgerald storms the manor home of the new
Viscount Wakefield, she feels more than justified fury.
Having just inadvertently witnessed his lordship in
scandalous dishabille with his London mistress, her blood
pounds with outrage...and with a thrill she has never
felt. She has come to demand better treatment for his
tenants, to seek some compassion, a shred of decency from
this dastardly rake whose reputation for sin and
debauchery precedes him. Now, the erotic image of his
powerful flesh only heightens her determination to make
this wicked rogue accountable for his actions...

One sealed with a kiss...

Certainly no woman has ever dared to take John Clayton to
task as though he is a naughty schoolboy, and no woman,
especially one as enticing as Emma, ever has refused to be
baited by his bold, assessing gaze. Instead she seems to
look beneath his skin to see more than a scandalous rake.
But this prim and proper Vicar's daughter leaves him
speechless when she proposes a bargain worthy of his own
insolence. In return for his kindness to others, she
offers herself. Vowing to regain the upper hand, John
brazenly sets out to introduce Emma into the art of love-
heedless of the consequences to his own heart...
